Population of one area rose from 10000 to 11000 and another from 1000 to 1300 in which is absolute growth higher?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: In the first area

The correct answer is A: absolute growth is higher in the first area. Absolute growth means the actual increase in the number of people, so subtract the old population from the new population. In the first area, 11,000 − 10,000 = 1,000 people. In the second area, 1,300 − 1,000 = 300 people. Since 1,000 is greater than 300, the first area has the larger absolute growth. Option B confuses absolute growth with percentage growth; the second area does have a larger percentage increase, but not a larger numerical increase. Option C is wrong because the two increases are 1,000 and 300, not equal. Option D is wrong because both populations increased. Memory cue: absolute means actual number; percentage means change compared with the starting number.
